* Before anything, just wanna be clear that im considering end-game pvp gear *

Ok, so, necklaces. Wanted opinion from high lv archers about some options. I've seen many archers choosing gear which gives extra stats (+dex or +str which can be reallocated into dex). Would that +5% hp +7str item be the best necklace for an archer for end-game? Im just asking cuz i came across a +14 str necklace, so i was wondering which of the 2 would be better.

Considering a 6k HP archer (5% = +300 hp), the options are a +300 hp +7 dex or a +14 dex necklace. So:
A) Which of those 2 would you choose?
B) Are there better items at 90~100?

Any info is appreciated :)

    I'd do the HP because 7 dex isn't going to matter endgame, once you're Sage or Demon. (Unless you're that close to a crit %. Then I'd take the other one for kicks and giggles.)

    But this is coming from a carebear newb, so feel free not to take me too seriously. I'm just going off what I know from forum lurking. o-o

    imo:

    Sky Demon's. If you can afford it, go for Giant Strength. If you want an even better alternative, I'd go TT99 gold pdef necklace and belt for the -interval.

    Sky demon can give you 8 dex. As a pure dex archer I think the 200-300 hp is barley worth the trade off. Especially since I wouldn't be able to make it to 31% crit with just a few extra dex.

    Even as a hardcore dex advocate there comes a point that you cant ignore a huge HP boost.

    Sky Demon's is now affordable for a lot of people with the new patch they updated the price to about 2.1m for mold ( 33 chips and like 600k considering chips are 50k each )The sky demon is really good giving you tons of p.def ( even more if you refine, which you should since it's pretty endgame )5% extra hp this will help a lot if your pure dex since we usually lack hit points unless you have full +5 at lvl 8x. Also Nelanther is right with that 7-8 str bonus you can hit the 94 str you need for lvl 90 and invest the rest into dex giving you the extra 7-8 dex.

    I know he can afford it. Read more carefully.

    "Sky Demon's. If you can afford it, go for Giant Strength..."

    Was actually a seperate point. Affordable comment was for Giant Strength. Though those two would just be a toss up b/w 7-8 stats for better pdef overall.

    If you're going for high 90s then I believe you should look into the TT99 gold HA ornament "set".
